Woo hoo Spring Semester : )!

Hello Blog World!

I am excited to be back from break and into Spring Semester 2010! Also known as my last semester, which is both amazing and sad. It's sad, because I love it here, but it's amazing because a whoel new chapter of my life is about to begin, and I have amazing memories at Thomas College to take with me :)

I had an excellent Christmas Break; I got to see my girlfriend everyday, which always makes me super happy :) I slept in a lot, which feels great, and worked a little bit. Not much work at all, like 22 hours over the entire break, so I had plenty of free time to just relax. My girlfriend and I watched a lot of Alias, this sweet spy TV show we love. We have it on DVD, so we don't have to wait a whole suspenseful week for the next episode, which was nice.

I also played a lot of a videogame called Borderlands, which is a role-playing shooter game. Borderlands was fun because it incorporated a lot of my favorite aspects of video games: looting, shooting, leveling up, questing, and character skill customization, so I played it a lot (on my girlfriend's brother's X-Box :D)

It was good to see my family and friends over vacation, and Christmas was awesome :) My girlfriend's mom knitted me a monkey that is awesome, and Santa came to my girlfriend's house, which made me suuppper happy :) He brought me gloves, which I super needed (Santa always knows just what you want).

I'm excited for this semester, I have only Tuesday-Thursday classes, which means I have none on MWF! Woooo! I did schedule work on these days, so I can come in and work here too :) I have an internship lined up for this semester, which starts next week sometime, and I am excited!

I miss my girlfriend a lot when I am at school; going from seeing her everyday to 2 days a week is rough :P She is getting her car fixed, and I can't wait to see her soon :D

Thank you for reading, I hope you have a great day :)

Snow is here :)

Hello : )

The snow has finally arrived in full force, meaning winter has arrived :P I did enjoy afternoon classes off yesterday, a chance to catch up on some homework, and relax for a while : )

I got to play Harvest Moon last night, which is a game I really enjoy. You are this little guy, and you inherit your father's farm, and you have to grow vegetables, raise animals (chickens, sheep, cows), and woo ladies in town. If you bring girls certain gifts; for example a girl named Anne likes sheep wool, a girl name Potpourri likes flowers and cakes, they start to like you more and more until eventually you can marry one. It's super awesome! Also it feels good to run an imaginary farm: harvesting, watering, hoeing, it's a fun game : ) My girlfriend also loves the game, and is on her third year in the game and has ALL the awesome stuff (she married the Elli, I know she likes eggs and milk).

I'm sooo glad it's near the end of the semester :) Taxes and Auditing were pretty tough this semester, especially together! Wooofah, I am just glad they are almost over : ) I'm also excited for vacation, the chance to unwind, relax, snuggle with my girlfriend, and grow a beard. My friends and I are participating in Manuary, an event which involves not shaving over X-mas break, just for fun : ) I also plan to work at a grocery store, just for a little extra moneys and busy-ness.

I am also excited for this weekend : ) I miss my girlfriend a lot during the week, so I can't wait to see her :D She makes me happy : )THES is putting on "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" this weekend, though I may be going to Farmington so I may miss it :P I have seen the runthrough's though, and all the hard work my friends have been putting in to it, and I bet it shall be awesome :D

I feel it may be time for this gentlemen to go get some lunchin' :D Have a great day, thanks for reading :D

MEGA MAN!

Hello blog world :)

It's been awhile since my last blog, it's getting to be that busy time of year; projects being due, tests are coming up, group activities are launching, busy busy busy :) I like it though, it's always fun to be doing things, and it makes your down time seem so valuable. Like last night I just chilled on my bed and read Bleach (a manga I like) and talked to my girlfriend :) It was great, to just chillout :D

Tonight is gonna be awesome, because we have dodgeball practice! Woooooooo! We have a game on Thursday vs. Blackout, who we have never played before. We are trying a new offense/defense system tonight, that I hope will clear up confusion : ) This is the only week we have only one game, the next few weeks we have two games a week, and then the week before Thanksgiving break we have 3 games, Monday-Tuesday-Wednesday :P

I just went out in the admissions office and chatted for like 20 minutes, I got started talking about my girlfriend, and just couldn't stop :) She is soo wonderful, she makes my heart sing :)

I don't have much homework this week, simply because I have some tests and projects coming up :P I believe in meeeee! It's gonna be a crazy next month though, with dodgeball, THES, EAG, CETC, classes, projects, and finals! WOooooo!

I got to see Rob Callahan's TV show "Professor Purple's Storytime" this weekend, and it was awesome! He told the story of Little Tumbo, an elephant learning to trumpet. Tumbo gets caught by hunters, but is saved by a wise old man and his son. It was pretty cool, and Mr. Callahan is a great storyteller :D Along with his assistant Bananas, of course : )

I hope you have a great day, and thanks for reading :D

Happy Almost Halloween : )

Hello Blogworld : )

Dodgeball season is officially underway! Team Charizard woooo! I am really excited, I love being active with my friends, throwing, bobbin', weaving, catching, yelling when I can't catch, it's always a fun time :D

I'm also super excited for Halloween weekend :D! I am going to see my girlfriend (yay :D) this weekend, for a Halloween weekend o' fun! I believe she is being a lumberjack for halloween; she crocheted a furry beard to wear, it looks awesome : )

I got an awesome grade on a paper the other day, which made me happy! My friend and I were partners on this 15 page paper we had to write about Ethics and the Food Supply, it was some crazy researching. GMO foods are sooo bad for you - did you know that rats fed GMO corn have smaller kidneys and a different blood composition than rats fed normal corn? Pretty crazy stuff :S

My roommate and I are checking out older NES games; they all pretty much rocked. The thing I love most about NES games is their insane difficulty levels, meaning you have to play a game for hours just to learn how to beat something. When you beat an NES game though, you feel great, it's that good sense of triumph and self-awesomeness : )

Thank you for reading : ) I hope you have a great day!

Sleepy Pandas

Good Morning Blog world :D

I am sleepy today, wooosh :S I was up a little later than usual last night, but it's ok cause I was talking to my ladyfriend on the phone :D Lost track of time though :P I did end up sleeping pretty well; I had some wierd dreams.
I had a dream my girlfriend and I lived together, and she was trying to get my attention but I was playing a video game I think; she got upset and went to go hang out with a friend, and I volunteered to walk the dogs (to try and make up for it :D) Then the dogs got away, so I spent some of the dream looking for them, and hanging out with my Aunt and some of my friends. Dreams are soo wierd sometimes :P I also dreamt that I shadowed my cousin to this other school, that was really dirty :S It was strangeness, but it was cool to see my cousin; she lives in California, so I don't see her much :)

It's almost time for Dodgeball season again this year! Woooo :D I may have tio sit out of the first couple of games, due to my eye injury. The other day my friend Scott and I were playing kickball with some friends, and I ran left and he ran right to try and catch the ball and WAMMY we hit. We both had to go to the hospital to get stitches, it was a rough collision :P I just don't want my cut to heal, and then play dodgeball and have it hit, because that would huuuurt.

I can't wait for this weekend :D My girlfriend is coming Friday and I can't wait to see her :D Friday night is the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life here on campus! I am hopefully going to help in the event, it's hasn't been working out because the planning meetings are all times I have class :( I am meeting the awesome lady in charge Thursday, to see what I can help out with :) It's going to be a blasty-blast :D

Me and my roommate are currently discussing pokemon strategy, Garchomp, Metagross, Zapdos, etc. I soemtimes refer to my roommate as my "Senior Analyst", because he is one smart cookie :D

I may have ust discovered some heartbreaking news: the pokemon tournament next year, which I am soooo excited about going to, may have changed it's rules and regulations to inculde Uber pokemon. Uber pokemon are legendary pokemon with stats way above the average pokemon (for example, stat totals of 680 compared to a normal 525). I feel that this is going to drastically affect tournament play: it's like if everyone in America drove little smart cars, we would all feel safe. Since some people drive SUV's, however, driving a smart car doesn't seem like a good idea because if someone in an SUV hits you it will hurt, so in order to protect yourself you buy a bigger car. Introducing Ubers into gameplay is like introducing SUV's into a smart car society: if you don't bring an Uber to play now, all the other people have a giant advantage over you :S Merrr.... I hope that this isn't the case :S I may not go in my smart car to the land of SUV's, even though the land is good :)

It's the.. eye of the tiger it's the thrill of the fight! Rising up to the challenge of our rivaaaals :D Thank you for reading (and for voting on my poll, hoorrray Pineapple Pizza :D) I hope you have a great day :)

Don't Stop Believiiiing

Hello Blog world :D

You know what I love? When you have a nice song that you actually enjoy stuck in your head. It seems that a majority of the time, when a song is stuck in your head, it's a song you want OUT of your head. I bring this up because I have a song in my brain by Niramon (a youtuber) call "Oh Pokemon what Happened to you?" It's a song about old school pokemon, and all the good times he had playing it. Those were indeed some great games, and I also love the new ones :D

I found out a friend of mine is a master of the keyboardial arts : ) I went over to his room the other night to study together for a test, and we just kinda jammed on his keyboard for awhile, and he was bustin' out Journey songs, some Mozart, Mario tunes, it was amazing. He is a great fellow, I hope we both did well on that Cost Accounting test :D It was a toughie though, I was like...???... on a couple, which isn't the best feeling :P I'm just hoping for the best :)

I am excited for this four day Columbus weekend! I am trying to work on my homework tonight (I have a large Auditing project due next Thursday) so that I don't have to worry about it this weekend : ) My girlfriend and I are going home, to visit our families, get new tires, and help my grandma with moving a few items : ) I miss my family, and I miss my girlfriend's family, they are all in my heart :D

MEGADAMEGADAMEGAMAAAN hahaha, there is the video online called Mega Man with lyrics, and it's an oldschool mega man game and soundtrack, with a gentleman singing along with the tunes. It makes me happy :D

I think I may also grab my NES when I am home, I just found an awesome thing only on home to make them work better (it's an awesome document about taking it apart, and bending the connector pins). I love NES games, so I am excited :D

Thank you for reading, I hope you have a great day :D

Woo Yeah Meetings

Hello : )

I always get pumped for the end of the week, for many reasons. 1. Wednesdays (yesterday) was the Environmental Awareness Group meeting, woo yeah 2. Today, Thursday, is the THES Drama Club meeting, shoop de woop 3. Friday is the Contemporary Entertainment and Technology Club meeting shoodly wop wop and 4. I get to see my girlfriend on Friday :D Yayyy! Also today is the meeting of the Alpha Chi honors society, which is pretty cool :D

I have a busy day today! Lots of meetings, classes, work, and then later playing some Dungeons and Dragons with my friends :D Later tonight I have to meet with my friend Falco to do some homework; he's one smart gentlemen.

There is some delicious looking fudge in the admissions office, I think I may go grab some : ) OOhh, turns out it is a peanut butter cookie, with lots of chocolate on top. Yummmm. :D Thank you CJ!

Last night my friends and I got together and played Ultimate Frisbee, and then yesterday we all played some Kickball! It was a good time, it was hard to score because we were playing inside the athletic center, and we said off the wall and of the net catches counted as outs; and if the ball hit one of the dividing curtains it would just slowly squish it's way down, so we had lots of outs :P Everytime someone kicked it hard enough that it hit the wall and bounced it usually made it a pretty tricky shot; my friend Lucas kicked a homerun, he is a kickball wizard : )

I gots to go and grab me some delicious lunch! The other day they had Pineapple Pizze (my favorite) so we'll see what they have for today :D

Thanks for reading, I hope you have a great day! :D
